SMOC:
There's is a video where you can see one fire truck's foam spray just being blown away in the wind before it's able to make contact with the A/C. This particular fire truck might as well not been there. I hope fire services learned something from the experience regarding the effect of strong winds and in future not just position themselves according to their SOPs. I also hope they practice during appalling weather which is more conducive to accidents.
SMOC, how would we react to a firefighter armchair quarterbacking our flying? I suggest you apply similar courtesy. They may very well have been intentionally laying a foam blanket on an area of fuel away from the aircraft. Either way, they successfully protected the flight deck and gave the crew their best chance; had they survived the impact they wouldn't have been killed by the fire. You can't ask more than that.
